Rotowire
Hayes scored his 17th goal of the season in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Predators.
The 30-year-old tied the game midway through the second period, tucking the puck inside the post to finish off a clean breakaway from the Nashville blue line. Unfortunately for the Flyers, Hayes was the only player able to solve Juuse Saros on the afternoon.

Flyers' Kevin Hayes: Contributes two helpers
Rotowire
Hayes notched a pair of assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-1 win over the Ducks.
Hayes hasn't done much since he was a healthy scratch Dec. 17 versus the Rangers. He's picked up three assists over his last six games, and his last goal came Dec. 7 against the Capitals. The 30-year-old has also seen a reduced role, playing mainly on the third line, which partly explains his scoring slump. Hayes has nine tallies, 23 helpers, 100 shots on net and a minus-11 rating through 37 contests, but he'll have to make a significant improvement in his overall play to regain the trust of head coach John Tortorella.

Don't look now, but Hayes has 10 points, including nine assists, in just seven games and that has him hovering around the NHL's top-10 scoring list. Hayes has never been this productive, so his pace will cool soon enough, but he's clearly motivated by the John Tortorella era.
